India is in the global epicentre of a power revolution. The fast

growing Indian economy needs affordable, sustainable and

uninterrupted electricity for enduring success, growth and move

the Indian economy to greater heights. This drive has propelled

the Indian electricity sector as the worlds 6th largest energy

consumer, accounting for 3.4% of global energy consumption by

more than 17% of global population.

The Indian Power sector is going through a US$600 Bn

modernisation and capacity addition phase, an immense

opportunity for those involved with the power sector covering the

entire spectrum of the industry, from generation, transmission,

distrbution and consumption. The key characteristic of this

phase is the focus on futuristic technologies in the fields of

sustainability, conservation, optimisation and environment

friendly consumption. Newer technologies and systems like

SmartGrids and renewable energy sources form part of this new

paradigm.

This paradigm shift requires thousands of next-gen

ELECTROTECH engineers who are global, versatile, quick,

innovative and adaptable to the changing requirements of the

industry. Drawn from all disciplines of engineering including

electrical, electronics, instrumentation, mechanical, production,

power and industrial engineering. This new breed of engineers

are primed to adapt to the dynamic needs of Indias dynamic and

exponentially growing sector, a phenomenon we call THE INDIA

POWER FACTOR.

IEEMA, as the voice of the Indian Electrical Industry has taken the

initiative to engage with the academic community productively

to leverage the available engineering talent of ELECTROTECH

engineers who can power the future. This initiative, ENGINEER

INFINITE, was started succesfully in 2010. IEEMA believes that

through ENGINEER INFINITE, the Industry and the academic

community get to join hands to address the opportunities and

challenges of building the future of the Indian power sector.

Calling Engineers to build a brave new future!

Often the biggest innovations

dont come from

million dollar R&D centres.

They come from college labs,

campuses and garages, driven by visionaries

with guts, gumption and resilience.

Its time for Indias best

ELECTROTECH talents to showcase

their best,afterall they are the backbone of

THE INDIA POWER FACTOR.

What is EI12?EI12 is the Student Project Competition to be held in conjunction with

ELECRAMA-2012 (the worlds largest exhibition for Power Transmission &

Distribution community) exhibition which will be held from 18th to 22nd January, 2012

at Bombay Exhibition Centre, Mumbai.

(For complete details on the exhibition please visit www.elecrama.com).

This competition encourages students of engineering (UG, PG and Diploma programs)

to apply their learning at their colleges and their own creativity to practical

applications on problems that need attention, in the electrical energy sector.

Competition Rules:Description:EI12 is the student project competition

organised by IEEMA for final display and

selection during ELECRAMA-2012 (The Worlds

Largest Power Transmission & Distribution

exhibition )

Objective:The participants would be required to build

and demonstrate a working model or build

and display a simulated model using specified

technical software.

Such model should address any problem

covered within the Project Areas. In general

a Project area would cover One Technology

Area and One Result Area. Projects addressing

issue covering more than one technology area

and/or Result Area will also be considered.

Selected project entries would be given

financial grant for building the model.

Eligibility:Eligible Institutions:

Universities, Deemed Universities,

and Colleges offering Graduate and Post

Graduate Technology/ Engineering Degrees,

What Constitutesa Project?For this competition, both working model

projects and simulation projects are accepted.

As far as possible, working model projects

should be submitted. Simulation projects

will be accepted for consideration when

such a working model is not practical due to

involvement of very high voltages/ currents

that are difficult to be provided at the venue,

a novel design, large size, long distance,

computer programs controlling a process and

such situations.

Participants must specify, in their initial

submission, whether the concept will be

demonstrated through a working model or bysimulation. Where the mode of demonstration

is through Simulation, the EI Expert

Committee may give guidance and suggest

a Working Model. The decision of the Expert

Committee whether it should be a Working

or Simulated Model will be final and binding.

Both types of projects need to adhere to the

conditions of Project areas (Technology area

and Results area).

General guidelines for each type of project

follow .


5/8

Working Model Project:An acceptable project will constitute a working model

that can be described as per the Technology Areas

and Result Areas mentioned above, designed with the

use of engineering principles based on theoretical

concepts that can be demonstrated through a

working prototype. Results are to be supported by

test data, where applicable, that can be repeated if

required.

Simulation Project:An acceptable model will constitute a simulated

working model involving a new design, new systemusing specific computer programs, new control

system, etc. Such a simulation must be done using

licensed software such as MATLAB, LABVIEW, etc.

Participants have to make their own arrangement

to obtain such licensed software. EI organisers will,

if required, provide participation letter or such other

documentation for this purpose. Financial grant

provided for modelling may be utilised for procuring

necessary software, subject to limits.

IMPORTANT:A project work already being pursued as a part

of the Diploma, Under Graduate or Post Graduate

course may also be presented for this competition,

provided the subject matter and the nature of the

project are otherwise permissible as per the rules

of the competition.

Project Team:A project team comprises student members and a

faculty guide

Student Members:

A project team may consist of

A maximum of THREE students in the case of

Undergraduate and Diploma courses.

Only ONE Student in the case of Post Graduate

course. An associate would be permitted to

accompany the participant to assist the

participant in the display, if such a project gets

selected for display during ELECRAMA-2012

(The Worlds Largest Power Transmission &

Distribution exhibition).

A project team cannot have a mix of Diploma,

Undergraduate, Post Graduate students.

The individual student members of a project

team must hail from the same institution and may

be from the same or different eligible branches.

In exceptional cases, teams comprising students

from different colleges may be considered.

Faculty Guide:

Each project team needs to have one faculty guide

from the same institution or from one of the

institutions as the student members of the project

team. The faculty guide would be from any one of

the eligible branches.
